Default High idle when drive

Question from Holland....overseas,wooden shoes,Windmills,legal smoke Marihuana ,blond girls,Heineken......

My 1998 Blazer LT with a V6 engine has a little problem.
Sometimes when I drive in the city and keep my foot of the gaspedal the RPM stays at 1200...so the car drives by itselves.......that sucks!
The engine is warm when he does it.
When I stop the car for 30 seconds the RPM goes to 600 in drive and the problem is gone for that moment.
The problem is not always there........I think a 10 minutes when 1 hour drive
What can it be? clean the MAF sensor or the trottle positioning sensor? or something else...

I would inspect the carb for binding in the linkage as well as the throttle cable for kinks.
